  • Hey, hey glory child, hey

    Hey glory child, don't you worry
    Stuttering, shaken off your fear
    Beauty's never given in a hurry
    So condescending, leave your questions here
    Hey glory child, don't you worry
    I can see your skeleton so clear
    Doubting's only made your visions blurry
    You're better off just looking in the mirror

    Show me a better way, I wish you could
    Show me a better way, I wish you would
    Come home today, you could
    Come home today

    I am shooting stars you will never see me
    Watching over your every mistake
    Digging out of graves is never easy
    Handing you my shovel, here to take
    Always playing catch me if you can
    Gingerbread you heard I'm sweet to taste
    Close your eyes, let go, and count to ten
    I'll keep track of every moment wasted

    Show me a better way, I wish you could
    Show me a better way, I wish you would
    Come home today, you could
    Come home today

    Dear God make me a bird, so I can fly far, far far away
    Dear God make me a bird, so I can fly far, far far away
    Dear God make me a bird, so I can fly far, far far away

    Call your phone on a late night
    I recall your soul had a taste like (taste like)
    Gardens, flowers, warm winds

    The clouds below your feet
    Quit clipping on your wings
    Sometimes we hate to leave somebody
    What's happening to we?
    Warm winds on a space ride
    When I call your phone on a late night
    I recall your soul had a taste like
    Gardens, flowers, warm winds

    The clouds below your feet
    Quit clipping on your wings
    Sometimes we hate to leave somebody
    What's happening to we?
    Warm winds on a space ride

    Sometimes, I call your name out loud
    Just to make sure it's you
    Sometimes, I crack my veins open
    Just to see if it's blue
    You clean me up

    The clouds below your feet (clean)
    Quit clipping on your wings (our wings, yeah)
    Sometimes we hate to leave somebody (you'll see)
    What's happening to we?
    Warm winds on a space ride
    When I call your phone on a late night
    I recall your soul had a taste like
    Gardens, flowers, warm winds
    The clouds below your feet
    Quit clipping on your wings
    Sometimes we hate to leave somebody
    What's happening to we?
    Warm winds on a space ride

    Sometimes I bite my lips and close my eyes
    Just to pretend it's you
    Long live, lonely thoughts on Thursday nights (ooh)
    That's when I think of you
    We were all thirteen once (once)
    Long live tramp stamps and Pepper Ann (Pepper Ann)
    You ain't never judge me for that (uh uh)
    You will always love me for that (sometimes we hate to leave somebody)

    What's happening to we?
    Warm winds on a space ride
    When I call your phone on a late night
    I recall your soul had taste like
